Subscribers can download tabs in MIDI, Guitar Pro, MP3, and WAV formats; Plus also includes transcription of 50 complete tabs per month. Plus costs $9.90/month and works across web, iOS, and Android. The separate Teacher plan supports private tabs and playlists, student seat management, invoices, billing documents, and purchase orders.
